Sparta Commercial Services announced that another jurisdiction has contracted with Sparta’s municipal leasing program to acquire a fleet of vehicles and equipment.

Jasper County, SC is the latest of 11 jurisdictions in the state and 90 jurisdictions around the country to participate in the Sparta program, which enables municipalities to lease essential equipment rather than having to purchase it outright.

Sparta’s municipal leasing program will add patrol cars and trucks to the Jasper County sheriff’s office fleet. The deal includes up-fitted Chevrolet and Dodge vehicles and Motorola radios.

The Sparta municipal lease program provides benefits for local government agencies that have limited budgets by making available a wide range of equipment at affordable rates. The program provides financing for vehicles and other essential equipment for the police, fire, EMS, public transportation, administrative, and public works departments.

Commenting on the most recent transaction, Anthony Havens, Sparta’s CEO, said, “This is another example of how we can help local government agencies acquire much needed equipment in the most cost effective way.”
